How To Save The Onmapclick Intent And Restore Once Activity Returns

I am trying to save my onMapClick intent (the point where the user taps on the map to place a marker, however in my app i take a picture first then return) But it seems on Activit

Solution 1:

The question and comments are very difficult to interpret. I am going to assume that all of this stuff boils down to:

How do I hold onto the LatLng that is passed into onMapLongClick(), given that taking a picture is causing my process to be terminated and restarted?

First, add a LatLng data member to your activity. For the purposes of this answer, I will call it:

LatLng theLastPlaceThatTheUserLongClicked;

In onMapLongClick(), as the very first line, save off the LatLng that is passed into onMapLongClick():

theLastPlaceThatTheUserLongClicked=point;

Create another constant in your class:

privatestaticfinalString EXTRA_PLACE="theLastPlaceThatTheUserLongClicked";

Replace your existing onSaveInstanceState() and onRestoreInstanceState() with:

@OverridepublicvoidonSaveInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onSaveInstanceState(savedInstanceState);

  savedInstanceState.putParcelable(EXTRA_PLACE, theLastPlaceThatTheUserLongClicked);
}   

@OverridepublicvoidonRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState);

  theLastPlaceThatTheUserLongClicked=(LatLng)savedInstanceState.getParcelable(EXTRA_PLACE);
}

Then, when you need the last place that the user long-clicked, use theLastPlaceThatTheUserLongClicked.
